Hi, I’ve followed these threads to try and help me with my pool balancing issues but for the life of me I can not get my pool fully balanced. Have been having issues since last summer and feel like I’m just wasting money with all the chemicals I use. I finally broke down and bought the Taylor K-2006C test kit so I could test everything accurately. I have an above ground pool 24x54 so approx 15,000 gallons. The area I live in is basically sitting on a salt dome so I know it affects one of my levels constantly but can’t remember which one. I just tested it and my levels are listed below:
TA-175
FC-0
TC-0
PH-8.0
CYA-35
CH-200
Phos-200
I shocked it on Sunday, June 4th with Calcium Hypochlorite, added phosphate remover(was 500 on Sunday) and HTH algaecide. I constantly have the white residue on the bottom that I vacuum to waste but it never goes away. After reading the forums I’m unsure if I should be using the tablets anymore as the info has confused me with what it does to the pool balancing. It did also just rain here yesterday too so I’m sure that threw my balance off.
Thank you for any advice and help!
